Get AI-powered advice on this job and more exclusive features.

A major quant strategy hedge fund is looking to make a unique hire into its expanding London-based trade support team.

The role has a core tech/development focus – primarily to support a heavily analytical, hands-on approach to trade support responsibilities (beyond manual processing) and to lead automation and process improvement projects. The role also involves working on ad-hoc projects for the tech, quant, and investment teams. Although not required from day one, the hire will learn Python, SQL, VBA, and R to a strong standard, with some exposure to Matlab, C++, and C#.

This position is ideal for a current operations, middle office, or trade support analyst with experience at an IB, hedge fund, or prop firm, who possesses strong technical skills and seeks to apply and enhance them. The role offers potential for advancement into managerial positions as the team grows or opportunities to move into tech, quant, or front office roles, including possible relocation to the firm’s HQ or other offices.

Candidates should have 2-5 years of relevant line operations or trade support experience, a strong STEM academic background, and some advanced coding skills, preferably in Python.

The salary range is £65-85k, reflecting a significant step up for candidates within the target experience range. Top performers will receive a substantial bonus in the first year, with continued growth prospects.
